Schools with the Highest Share of International Students
Harvard is not the only university that relies on the attendance of (and revenue from) international students.
A decine in international student attendance spells significant impacts to universities' bottom lines as well as financial support of domestic students. Tuition revenue coming from international enrollees can be significantly higher than that of domestic students, effectively subsidizing costs for U.S. students.
Beyond financial concerns, the enrollment of international students on the undergraduate and graduate levels significantly informs the student experience both in and out of the classroom. Forced reductions of international students are projected to impact research efforts, future scholarly accomplishment as well as the financial health of local economies.
As a result, the long-term consequences of significant reductions in international student attendance will be multifold and felt for years to come. As of this writing, judicial decisions and further actions are pending.
